Happy accidents

Tonight, while working on my third and final piece for the Sloika Montage Strange History space on SuperRare, I stumbled upon an image that didn't suit my needs but was so cool I had to stop and finish processing it before I could move on.

I love these beautiful happy accidents.

I first started working on a website for Claire Silver's fourth AI art contest. Sadly, I tried doing it the hard way: custom coded with the help of GPT4. While I made tremendous progress on getting a basic website put together that looked almost identical to this, the complexity of working in VS Code for me, a no-code beginner, eventually became overwhelming.  Using Google Sites, I have now recreated the custom website's aesthetic while also advancing much further, an example of which is this updates page, which I was unable to implement successfully. I had no idea that Blogger still existed, and it was unbelievable easy to integrate with Google Sites. I'll be using this updates page to document my journey as an artist, having only gained the confidence to call myself...
